Virginia Tech, for the first time in a decade, should receive good news Sunday evening regarding their status in the NCAA tournament. At this juncture, the Hokies are a safe bet for the field. All that is left to decide is what region the team will be playing in and at what seed. Most experts project the Hokies anywhere from the seven to nine seeds. Out of those possibilities, the seven seed would be most ideal. If the Hokies can win their first round matchup, they would have to play a two seed rather than a one seed.
When it comes to the Hokies résumé, it is much better than it was a month ago.
